Status lives in the API
Publisher verification writes currently return 404. When a reviewed proof flow reopens, consumers must check the rights endpoint instead of trusting a copied image.
README badge
This asset is reserved for a future verified namespace. Publisher onboarding is currently fail-closed and production has no rights rows, so do not use the badge as a current claim. When verification reopens, the authoritative namespace-control record will remain GET /v0/publishers/{publisher_passport}. The image alone is not proof, and it does not imply a signed rights receipt.
Copy & paste
These snippets link to the protocol's verification boundaries, not to a per-server evidence page. Public receipt retrieval and authoritative key discovery are M1a work.

Publisher verification writes currently return 404. When a reviewed proof flow reopens, consumers must check the rights endpoint instead of trusting a copied image.
Clicking through explains canonical bytes, signatures, link semantics, conformance vectors, and the current gap before complete public live verification.
The SVG is a public static asset and can be copied by anyone. Treat it as a navigation aid; rely on API metadata for actual status only after verification is reopened.
Do not publish this badge as a verified claim today. Review the closure and evidence boundary while the replacement publisher-proof flow is designed and accepted.
